Flash Player 10.2.156.12 wont install

Am I doing something wrong here? Even tried to manually uninstall updates in the settings and going from there. Nothing. Did a reboot. Nada.
Says its designed to support dual core processors and our phones are listed as supported. What's the problem then??
To clarify it says insufficient storage available which can't be true with approximately 1.5GB of application space left and plenty of media storage as well.

I can't really help you, but I thought I'd mention that I installed it weeks ago and didn't run into any problems. So at the very least, you SHOULD be able to install it, since I have that version on mine.

Any one else not able to install this?

I have the same issue. Can not update Flash 10.1 to 10.2 after a clean wipe and install of GladTrix rom. Not sure why either, very interested in this topic.

every since deodex'ing i've also had some market issues, the flash one included. some market FC's, and things download but don't install. some items don't start downloading.
search 4shared for the 10.2 apk and sideload it, that worked for me. i could not get it to install from the market.

Tried to sideload, did not work either.

make sure ur internal and external memory is mounted. sometimes they get stuck and dont mount right.

Bricked Nexus S

I am in a bit of a pickle. I rooted my brand new Nexus S, but in the excitement, I accidentally flashed a kernel for Cyanogenmod first instead og the ROM first, THEN the CM7. Now it won't go pass the unlocked bootscreen. I have searched for solutions, but can't find any. If only the Nexus S had a SD card, I would know what to do, but how do I get a stock kernel transferred to the phone when I can only get it into Clockwork mod? I tried factiory reset and all, but it is not the problem, it is the kernel. I can get into CWM but nothing happens when I try to mout USB storage to transfer files and/or new kernel..... Help, anyone? Please?

You can mount your sdcard from recovery, there is an option for mounts in the first menu. Then transfer whatever file you want to flash.

It doesn't work. Ther phone shows up for a split second in Windows file explorer and then closes again.

Please post the exact model of your phone and the exact file you flashed, and the exact CWM recovery file you flashed.

Also, if you can get to recovery you haven't bricked your phone
If you haven't done it already I'd also flash superuser. If you are after a stable ROM based on CM7, I'm using NSCollab 1.0.39 and works very well.

Which drivers do you have installed, just the ones from the Android SDK? what Windows do you have?

when you flashed cyanogenmod after flashing the kernel, cyanogenmod automagically overwrote the kernel that you flashed first, so thats not the issue. try wiping data, then reflash cyanogenmod and the gapps.

simms22, the issue occurred because after flashing the kernel, I could not flash anything because it just halted on the Google screen with the open padlock. I have now uninstalled and reinstalled the Samsung drivers, and it helped, I then could see the phone in Windows Explorer and was able to transfer a new kernel and a new ROM, which actually was the NSCollab which I like because of the speed. Thanks all for helping me out. Have a nice one.

ahh, i misread what you wrote. im glad that it got straightened out anyways

Good to hear
NSCollab 1.0.39 is pretty stable with the Matr1x 5.5 kernel it comes with and you'll notice a better battery life too.

[Q] Phone.apk crashes every time someone calls me

On AOKP 4.2.1 the phone app crashes when I receive a call. I've reflashed a fresh downloaded GAPPS on here and it does the same thing. When coming to this ROM I wiped all data and factory reset everything. I've tried that again and it's still doing this. Starting to get on my nerves. Anyone have this problem?

I tried clearing the data from the phone app. I can reboot and clear dalvik again. I also flashed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2127498 and it's still acting up.

did you dirty flash your rom or did you make a clean install? also, after you installed aokp, did you restore system apps with titanium backup? and, have you tried a third party phone app?

I did a clean install and manually installed all of my apps again. I managed to fix it by dirty flashing the 4.2 version of AOKP. However; my phone still has that random reboot issue. The thing that's odd is, when it comes back online it loses it's settings. So I'll have to setup Google Wallet and Google Voice again. My keyboard goes back to the default AOSP one.
I think I might just RMA this phone and start over. I do love it, and the negatives don't outweigh the positives.

rma? dont.
wipe that thing clean with a factory reset. all your problems will be gone. then, if you like, start trying out roms again.
but bugging lg and nexus because you trashed your phone, thats not so cool. i can kinda understand samsung tries hard to lock their bootloaders sometimes.
links here: https://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/occam-jop40d-factory-ca7602f0.tgz
theres a batch file inside, make sure fastboot is around and click it (you must be in fastboot mode aswell). in a couple of seconds youre back to stock.

Um... I had the problem on stock 4.2 as well, factory from Google themselves. It rebooted at random for no reason. I have wiped everything... multiple times. It's still doing it.

same thing happened to me this whole week. I have been flashing custom ROM custom this whole week. People have been texting saying my phone dont work. I called in to re-fresh with TMobile network and still the same thing. I also got a new micro sim card still the same. i have to revert back to stock with root in order for the phone calls to work. i have been searching for a fix.

I thought it was the MicroSIM too - I got a brand new one with them, but nope - it's been all strange. Do you have 4.2 Stock rooted anywhere? I can only seem to find 4.2.1. I just wiped everything, restored factory etc etc and threw stock 4.2.1 on here, got the reboot issue. Phone has been working lately finally. I had to dirty flash AOKP 4.2.1 build-1 over build-2.

I tried to get a new gapps in case the download was bad. I'm just going to RMA it. I'm on 4.2.0 stock, unrooted with default everything and it's still acting up. Phone.apk works now; which is lovely, but it reboots at random and Music stops working after 3 minutes.

[Q] PlayStore problems

My playstore will not update apps or install new apps.
1. I have logged out and back into my google account.
2. Tried deleting PlayStore app data and force quit.
3. Deleted data from google services app and restarted tablet.
4. Installed TWRP backup from 1 week ago.
Still can't get it to work. Sometimes it will begin to download an app and then stop. Mostly it just says downloading but nothing is happening. I'd appreciate suggestions or solutions. Thanks
Rooted 4.2.2

Network is fine. Computers on network Down 4.88Mbps Up 0.58

Then call google.

They suggest factory reset.

try flashing a different rom along with a gapps package, that could fix it

Since everything else was working I did nothing, Didn't want to reset unless absolutely necessary. Today Google Play is working again. Must have been some communication issue with Google servers.

Did you updated the latest play store?? You can get if form this link.

I did not realize that you can flash gapps over stock. I've only done it in conjunction with installation of a ROM.
If I have further problems , I'll give it a try. thanks. Currently it's working normally.

[RESOLVED] Booting goes to black screen!

Okay, so I was listening to a YouTube video via Popup Browser BETA. When the song finished, I tried closing the window, but it wouldn't let me interact with the window. Not sure why. I just figured since the app was in beta it was just confused, so I went to the settings->running applications->I force closed the app. But for some reason, the little window still wouldn't go away. So I decided to reboot my device. Bad idea, apparently...
Now whenever I boot up my phone it'll vibrate, display the Google logo for a few seconds, and then... it goes to a blank black screen. Not a clue why. I've tried:
- Leaving it to charge and rebooting
- Leaving it in the blank black screen
- Booting into recovery, then trying to reboot the device from there
- Clearing cache partition
Nothing works. I still can't boot up my phone again.
I'm running Slimbean 4.2.1 (not the latest version). There really isn't anything that might have triggered this. I can still charge my phone (the charging animation still occurs) and I can still go into CWM Recovery. I'd really rather not have to install a new ROM or anything... but if I have to, is there a way to extract the data I have on my phone now while in recovery or something?
Any suggestions?
EDIT: This has been FIXED. Moderators, if you see this, you can close this thread. If anyone else has this problem, try reflashing your current version of your ROM, that's how I fixed mine. I'm not responsible for damage to your device.

Why haven't you tried reflashing your rom without wiping data?

No way of corrupting your data, as long as you don't select to wipe data partition or data is already corrupted. But this is strange that your phone gone crazy like this. Try to reflash your rom without wiping data and see if your phone will boot up

I've not got enough free space on my phone I don't think (it's only 16GB, I got about 2GB free).
Unless I'm mistaken the backup will take more than that, yes? Considering I've got a few games apps that probably equate to about 4GB.

Reflash the same version you were running before this accident, as the newest version requires clean flash. If you want to run the latest version and have your data back, reflash the same version you were running before, then backup your data, wipe phone, flash the latest version and restore your data

WOO! Thanks a lot! Booted up perfectly, and no loss of data or anything like that. Only odd things is it seems to have changed my DPI... but I can change that easily so it's not really a bother. It also made me have to update the Virus Definitions on Avast!, not sure why either.
